In 2022 it looked like the actor’s spectacular career was winding down. Suddenly, he was back on top. People With Money reports on Sunday (March 30) that Dallas is the highest-paid actor in the world, pulling in an astonishing $96 million between March 2024 and March 2025, a nearly $60 million lead over his closest competition.

The American actor has an estimated net worth of $275 million. He owes his fortune to smart stock investments, substantial property holdings, lucrative endorsement deals with CoverGirl cosmetics. He also owns several restaurants (the “Fat Dallas Burger” chain) in Washington, a Football Team (the “Phoenix Angels”), has launched his own brand of Vodka (Pure Wonderdallas - US), and is tackling the juniors market with a top-selling perfume (With Love from Matt) and a fashion line called “Matt Dallas Seduction”.
